With different IPMG divisions and individuals entering separately, the printing industry team does not appear at the top of the leaderboard for the MS ‘Gongride’, which is currently led by the team from SBS and Broadcast Australia with $60,195.
However, if all the contributions and riders under the IPMG banner were combined, it would equate to $71,301 across 185 riders – the highest number of riders for any team.
The IPMG group includes riders from Offset Alpine, Craft Inprint, Sinnott Bros and Hannanprint (pictured), who took part last year.
ProPrint has sponsored the IPMG team, and ProPrint editor Steven Kiernan will be joined on the 90km bike ride by the magazine’s creative director, Sam Grimmer.
